After we left Naknek, we headed home to Washington for about two weeks to collect some more of our belongings and jumped in the Honda to head to Loveland, CO. We're going to be here for the second half of Jeremy's internship until the middle of May. We're working with a smaller church here, which is nice. We were able to meet people quickly. They are a very friendly congregation. Jeremy has been busy being in the office and doing visitation. We got here December 12th and had a great Christmas with some of Jeremy's family. The 26th my (Lacey) parents came via a longer route to California. :) They stayed for a week. It was fun to have them!

While we have been here we have seen a lot of wildlife as well. It's a really beautiful area, and we're happy to be around mountains once again! We're getting spoiled! We took a trip about an hour away up to Estes Park to celebrate my dad's birthday, January 2nd.


Fox in our backyard!


Bighorn Sheep in Estes Park. We also went to Rocky Mountain National Park and saw TONS of Elk, a coyote and lots of Mule Deer.

Jeremy's cousins Jeff and Renee have this awesome antique cabin in Estes we stayed in with my parent's!

We have been enjoying our time in Colorado as well. It's been a little difficult moving once again and meeting new people. But we're thankful for everyone here and those who have made us feel welcome. We are living in a very nice house owned by a couple in the congregation. It's been such a blessing to be so well cared for everywhere we've lived. We would continue to appreciate your prayers! Here's a few things you could be praying for:

*Jeremy as he continues on this time of internship. He is preaching every other Sunday, so stays busy with sermon preparation.

*Guidance on what God would like myself to do while here. I may have a possible part-time nanny job, but if that doesn't work out we'll see what God has in mind. :)

*Travel as we head to Minnesota for a week on Sunday! There will be a few interviews that the seminarians on internship go to as well as the Pastor's Conference. And it will be great to see good friends!

*Direction for the future. We really enjoyed our time in Alaska, but are trying to decide if we will head back up there in the future or what God has planned. Graduation is approaching fast!

*Alaska- the missionaries up there, people, safety, etc.

Thank you for your prayers! We appreciate it so much! Here's a few links, if you didn't get enough picture looking:
